So mom’s going to kill or just scalp Darragh. She invited him to spend Xmas at ours with us, unlce james and rodger, and knowing he’s always doing stuff, she invited him at the beginning of the year. Yeah, he’s blown us off. He’s going to spend Xmas in the Antartic or somewhere equally desolate, so now she’s pissed that he crapped on her plans.
Well I have wanted to see this movie for awhile. It looked okay as far as trailers go and well, have been on a zombie fueled ride of late and thought this would be perfect. So when I saw the movie I was left wondering several things:
If you need a rating then my suggestion is you may want to wait for it on DVD. Better reviews have been written than mine and they were people who like me had spent time hoping for a better movie!
Now more importantly folks, when does Ironsky come out? I want to see this movie as it sounds great! The details for this can be seen at www.ironsky.net.
I can’t believe I just found Dilbert podcasts on itunes…..it’s totally weird though, they’ve changed the voices since the cartoons, so they just don’t sound right….Anyway I’m flicking through them seeing if there’s any good ones so far there’s a few…. 🙂
Since I’ve mentioned the John Cleese podcasts before, I’ve listened to a good few, and given it more patience than I believe it deserves….Out of more than ten podcasts, none of them have the man himself in them….about five of them are jsut background noise of someone making a cup of tea and then somone hoovering….then the others are some of the production staff on his tour…..that could still be interesting, but it isn’t. There’s maybe two I’ve found with Cleese actually in them and they’re little videos, which are ok, but not great.
Sigh.
So I got a call from Jason today. He and Anna are looking at moving to Canada next year. It has been awhile since he and I spoke. Was nice to hear from him. Would be nice if he lived closer! He was telling me how he had changed jobs and has gone from PC World to Currys. It really sounds that sales and computers has become his thing. Which is funny as I am not sure I would have pictured him in this line. Goes to show how much you really don’t know folks I guess. However anything he turns his mind to he does well.
Taylor is doing well and is 14 months. When he speaks of her and Anna he beams. I know that sense, and am happy for him. Now all he and I need to do is get a good online game going! Send me that address soon Jason!

It’s funny how you can be so sure of something one day and then be completely wrong about it the next. But then I suppose it’s one of those things in life that can bee seen as a good and bad thing, it always finds a new way to knock you on your ass to make you learn.
Yesterday I wrote a blog about my outrage after reading a very short article in the Irish Independent that someone had created a waterboarding installation in the Coney Island Fun Park.
Ger, thank you for your very long comment showing me the massive error in my judgement call. I wrongly jumped on the band wagon after having read one journalist’s opinion on the topic without giving the broader picture on the installations significance. I’m honestly ashamed that I was such a twit to let my opinion be swayed so easily, I’m going to delete that blog now. Again, thank you Ger for very patiently pointing me towards the other side of the story.
Okay you think I need help? How about this guy worried about a dinosaur attack? Come on people wake and smell the Zombies!
So as I continue to share my concern over the impending doom of a full fledged Zombie invasion, I feel somewhat mocked by those who feel I should be either heavily medicated, or backed off the current dose of medication I might be on. I will however continue to pursue this rant, this inane crusade until I am taken seriously, my only hope is that someone does not apply rule 6 to me! (kill the crazy people first!)
As the current days go by I begin to wonder if I need to add an Alien Invasion to my current list of fears? Should I worry about the little green men meeting and conspiring with the funny dead men? Should I worry about a joint task force from both, alien technology controlled by those with the attention span of a garden implement? What would be the out come? If nothing else it would be pretty damned funny to watch.
So if we could imagine the blue no nosed chimp from evolution conspiring with invader zim, this would be a terrible thing. If we were however to imagine the spaceballs and the shaun of the dead zombies we could end up with something so damned funny mankind would die laughing long before we were eaten or zapped.
I guess the important question now would be what is my current state of mind that I am concerned about the implausible happening? Well folks I fear to tell you it is not good, I am over concerned about real life issues that include my ability to support my family. This current economy and the blessings of my employer leave me to wonder a great deal.
So I will now retreat folks and worry about my aluminum foils hats and will they truly keep me safe from the aliens rays?
So last night I went to Nimhneach, a fetish club in town. I was meant to go with two other friends, Fred and Lorc, but Fred after getting off the bus in Chapelizod to get her dress and shoes wasn’t to be seen again last night. She has texted me since, so I know she is alive.
So myself and Lorc braved the new venue of Nimhneach on our lonesome. Him gothing it up a notch and me dressed in vintage to my tonsils (the pokka-dot shoes I bought last time I was over, my slinky 1940s dress, my pearl necklace, red lipstick, eyeliner, and my hair up in victory waves), we dressed to impress and got in. Yay.
Anyway, we had a great night watching a guy dressed as a teacher smacking a girl and guy dressed as schoolchildren with various things from a cane to a hairbrush. Plus there was also a vaccum bag! Y’know those storage bags you see advertised on TV where you stuff your winter jumpers in or whatever, hook up the hoover, suck the air out and it’s like a third of the size…….yeah there was one of them! But for people! I joined in the fun at one point on the A-frame and got whipped….my ass is now severly bruised! (You stole my blog title Ger!) It hurts to sit down, but mom hasnt noticed yet. lol.
We youngings formed our own little group, with three other guys and a girl. We’re meant to meet up with them in Fibbs on Thursday, plus I got asked out, so I have a date that night too! Should be fun. He works in a shoe shop and has promised me discount shoes, so that’s an adventure for tomorrow.
I just realised that Dad and Unlce James have access to this blog too, but the former doesnt know how to use the internet, and I’m not sure if the latter still keeps up with this,……anyway they should know I’m a little odd and hey, I know what I like. 🙂
Okay folks, if you are in a room with remotes and they belong to something in that room, leave them in the room! Do not take them for a walk with you. The remotes will not be jealous, unlike a life partner, wife, significant other, common law wife, livestock or whatever you are, the remotes feel nothing. However if you take the remotes from my room and place them somewhere else you will receive a swift kick in the ankle! Leave the remotes alone people.
If you have not seen it watch the new Batman movie! Don’t sit near a Zombie, the moaning can ruin some of the more pivotal moments during the movie, like the romantic moments with Bruce Wayne & Harry Potter. Personally that scene could have been left out, but hey.
